We are looking for people to attend a paid event in Manchester on 5 December to share their thoughts on self-sampling for cervical screening. We particularly want to talk to current non-attenders. People from Black, Asian & other ethnically diverse groups are especially welcome.

Very enjoyable CPD session at the #LMI ( Liverpool medical institute) with @LucyGoBag . Much hilarity caused by the zoom hacking- but a truly thought provoking talk about an humanitarian approach to challenges.

The collective principle asserts that….no society can legitimately call itself civilised if a sick person is denied medical aid because of a lack of means. The great vision of Aneurin Bevan and why I value my job in the #NHS #savethenhs #healthcareforall #EqualityForAll

Please consider completing this survey - cervical screening uptake is lower in ethnically diverse communities and we want to know whether self sampling would increase the number being screened! Please complete and re-tweet.
Cervical screening saves lives but participation in ethnic diverse population is low. Please help us fill in this survey to understand your thoughts on current screening and self sampling methods! qualtrics.manchester.ac.uk/j…

An interesting read for those who feel we should be able to top up and chose private care! #nhs #EqualityForAll #universalcare
A thread for the ultra-wealthy. If you are wealthy, you may think that if the U.K. switches from an NHS-model to a private model of healthcare it will either a) be better for you, or b) will not affect you. Here is why you are wrong… 🧵

Flight delayed by 3 hours…. This is after a earlier 24 hour delay ( thanks @britishairways 😭). Realisation that my homeostasis can’t handle the hydrating after years of permissive dehydration working in the #nhs #notimetopee #Squeezie #femalesurgeon #Solidarity #juniordoctors

98% of the junior doctor who voted have voted for strike action. We are right behind them. Please RT if you are too and help show them they are not alone. #JuniorDoctors

Solidarity with my striking junior doctor colleagues. It is scandalous that the government has engineered a 26% real terms cut in your pay. #NHS 💪
